I am too lazy to translate. Are those commercially available or just the work of a good modeler? Those are awesome. If they are commercially available I would buy one of those in a heartbeat.

They are model kits that are being released in Japan.

I ran the link through freetranslation.com

"Beyond to to be fascinated of model-making we are also crazy about video games and Ã¨ been really an attractive one surprised when during the fair of Shizuoka, in the stand of the Organic (Kaiyodo) we found this series of detailed reproductions of the Arcadian cabin cruisers SAW of the years 80.

Who it does not remember Out Run or the mythical game of movement GP HangOn?! This “Sega Taikan Game Collection” reproduces 5 between Arcadian video games: Space Harrier, Premium Hang-On, Outrun, Thunderblade eÂ After Burner. Available from August, this series of miniature Ã¨Â simply imperdibile for videogiocatori and nostalgic modellisti."

I thought I could find something like these on jlist, but the closest I came was finding a scale model bank of the cabinet to Space Invaders http://www.jlist.com/PRODUCT/KBN239

Those looks really cool. I wouldn't mind having the Out Run model. I just wish the After Burner model was based on this cabinet:

Those are very cool, I could see me mounting one of those to my dashboard, lol.

I want a Time Crisis one.

I vaguely remember playing After Burner once. It's a really fun game.

Anyway, those models loos pretty cool. I started collecting retro Sega stuff in recent years and those Models would make a pretty nice addition.

What's the scale, could you slap Cobra Commander or Ship Wreck onto one?
